With more than two nodes DRBD needs some information against which other peer(s) it tracks changes. In DRBD8 you only have one peer, "easy", in DRBD9 you have to know this is "Node A", this is "Node B",... Using information that changes (e.g., hostnames) is too volatile. So one has to give nodes an ID, a unique identifier that never changes. (There are scenarios where you don't need them even in DRBD9 setups, but let's not go down that rabbit hole). > Is it a drbd 9.0.x / Linstore thing? I'm using 8.9.6 yes, a DRBD9 thing.
